Football’s Proud Class of ’36

Add to the list of Princeton football greats the Class of 1936. Arriving in Blairstown in the fall of 1932, its players reported to the legendary Coach Fritz Crisler. In their four seasons together (freshman and three varsity), they would sustain only one loss, to their arch-rival Yale, finish high in the national rankings, and receive an invitation to the Rose Bowl, subsequently declined by the administration. By graduation, they were duly considered the Pride of Nassau.
